Reliquaries

<p><em>Reliquaries</em> is a collection of poems both reverent and skeptical of the complex divinity of the natural world the family and the self. Each poem itself a container meant to house a precious relic delights in the mangrove the spoonbill the venom and the flood. They celebrate the living and the dead the mundane and the fantastic. They are lyric offerings rooted in the wonder and joy of language.</p><p></p>
